Christmas Houses…

Julie Marie over at Idyllhours introduced me to ‘Putz Houses’ last Christmas time. Hers of course are authentically vintage handed down from earlier generations. Julie Marie’s sentimental stories about her collection inspired me to find some of my own. However, after searching several local antique stores and not being able to find any vintage ones, I ended up with some “new” models that are much larger than the original ones (but still beautiful).Pictured below are the ones I purchased last year and still love, love, love! Wouldn’t it be fun to add another every year to create a village. There are so many that I have seen in stores this year ~ but I steered clear of buying any more! I was afraid that I might develop a new collection that was not needed.I know that I shared this little collection in an earlier post. Next year I plan to decorate it with snow and more bottle brush trees…so sweet isn’t it?

Happy Holiday Season to you all ~ To see what I am linking to this week – please check my “Cottage Links” label…xoxo, tracie

Hi Tracie... thanks for the mention!... yes, I am totally addicted to the vintage Putz houses, many of which were mine as a little girl... I also love the new ones too, and yours are beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing, much love to you, and Merry Christmas!... xoxo Julie Marie
